In Indonesia, Roman Catholic worshipers ride in boats on the Larantuka Sea on April 2 following a procession accompanying a statue of Jesus as it is transferred to another church during Holy Week. The worshipers followed the procession to celebrate the 500-year anniversary of the discovery of the statue of Mary. They believe the Tuan Ma statue, which was found in Flores in 1510, is the basis of a new religion that has replaced animism on the island. Government data in 2008 showed that more than 80 percent of residents on Flores Island are Roman Catholic in a predominantly Muslim country. Beawiharta/Reuters
